The list for the called up players to make up the Super Eagles squad by coach Chille is out. Although the total number of players listed are 39 in number but it's speculated that Chille will do more scrutiny reselecting a final list of 23 players before the match days against Rwanda and Zimbabwe.

In the 39 man list as shown in the image I can see names of some golden-oldies which I never expected as I was expecting Chille will interest himself much on young superstars players to do the job for him.

It's obvious that among all the departments, the forward is with the highest number of calls ups. Which player in your opinion do you think doesn't deserve a place in this list probably by current for of the individual player or club?

This is a good one, but just like always The Nigerian national team is not always about the qualities of players being called but how many of them are willing to play with the whole of their heart for the national team. For years now the super eagles always have quality players, but they don’t win anything with it, sometimes they even struggle to qualify. Let hope this time around they will play different. With such quality in this list I think most teams will be scared to face the super eagles.

I was expecting to see Gift Orban in this list, after his recent move to Hoffenheim in the bundesliga, he is scoring again, he has now scored 4 goals in 8 matches for the German side. I know maybe because of his body size might be the reason he his been left out but we have seen so many players with such size causing damages for the opposition side.

Overall it a good lis and I really hope this time around the super eagles will really do us proud.
